you can use any you wish or none if your memory good enough
but I use these three the most coppercoins.com, doubleddie.com briansvarietycoins.com and varietyvista.com
check the hints to not go off to far
denomination, mint, and one extra tip are given ahead of time
The pictures in addition to the hints should make for fun hunt, but should not to be too crazy to make it annoying
